@commanderred@chaos.social I moved it to /lib because that's where Pale Moon's other dependencies were. I initially installed it in /home (well, actually it was /home/palemoon, but then I moved it to /home), from the AUR, using git clone and makepkg. Am I supposed to do it another way?

@mikelovesbikes@hear-me.social @commanderred@chaos.social yeah, that's not how it works (if I understood you correctly). Just moving something to /lib does not make pacman aware of the dependency as it has its own database. With makepkg you are greating a package so if this package depends on gtk2 then pacman has to know that it is installed or it will give you the error you got. Just install gtk2 per package and you should be good.
